how to calculate


Recommended Posts

allright so im helping my friend tonight by bouncing ideas off of him and hes wanting to do 16 15's or 18's camper shell blow through, 8 per side, (he doesnt know what brand or power so dont ask) in his 09 ram 3500 mega cab and he and i both understand that you have to have proper cubes and everything but something he asked and i dont know is how do you calculate the cubes needed on multiple sub setups?

Figure out how many subs you want total.

8 per side as you said above.

Find the specs of the sub and the recommended enclosure size, multiply that by 8.

So if the subs call for 3 cubes per sub, it would be:

3ft^ x 8subs = 24ft^

ok thats what i was thinking but ive seen people say they have the recomended cubes on multi sub setups but when i look up the specs on that sub and multiply it by the number of subs and it comes out to a totally different number

Other people have built and rebuilt and found out what works best for a setup. Manufacturers recommendation is a ballpark figure for a general application like sealed or a basic port box. 4th orders, 6th orders and all that stuff is in a totally different league.

just remembered does the tuning stay the same or do you have to tune it differently?

Lol no problem. I haven't dealt with or built or tried to design any 4th orders, but your best bet would be to try to hit up Ray or 412CVX about them.

3ft^ x 8subs = 24ft^

when running common chamber that isnt exactly true.
